A red light flashes at position xR = 3.00 m and time tR = 3.00 x 10-8 s and a blue light flashes at xB = 9.0 m and time tB = 4.80 x 10-8 s. (All values are measured in the S reference frame.) Reference frame S' moves constantly to the right. Both flashes are observed to occur at the same time in S'.
a. Find the relative velocity between S and S'.
b. Find the time of the two flashes in frame S'.
c. Find the locations of the two flashes in the S' frame.
